The Colombian economy owes its growth to investment and steady exportation, following the economic downfall caused by the pandemic. However, as inflation rises, it is predicted that investment will slow down due to the global economic crisis. Nevertheless, the growth of the Colombian economy has expanded novel areas of IP practice.

Following the presidential elections of 2022, stakeholders hope that the new government will develop IP legislation to speed up the patent granting process and improve financial accessibility.
